[Team, Agreements & Policies](https://help.seedlegals.com/en/team-agreements-policies?hsLang=en) # How to create an Intern Agreement ## Set clear expectations and legal protections for your interns An Intern Agreement is a contract between a company and an individual who is joining the team temporarily to gain work experience, typically for a fixed period. Companies may choose to offer interns a stipend, expenses, or other agreed benefits, or, in some cases, internships can be unpaid (depending on the arrangement and legal requirements). As of April 2026, the UK national minimum wage is £10.85 per hour for ages 18–20 and £12.71 per hour for ages 21 and over. Our agreement clearly sets out the intern’s responsibilities, duration of the internship, any compensation or benefits, confidentiality obligations, and intellectual property ownership. This ensures both you and the intern have a clear understanding of expectations and legal protections throughout their placement. **Here's how to create one on the platform:**  1.
